With the currently proposed patch, updating the TOC works if it has been shown on the initial page view, but it does not work if it hasn't been (e.g. when creating a new page). Also, the TOC does not disappear if all headings on the page are removed.
The same issue is present when using the live preview in the old wikitext editor (as noted in T294950). Perhaps both situations can be fixed with one patch to Vector.

Yeah, I noticed that - I think we can fix that in a separate issue. It's a smaller minority of edits that would trigger this, and the failure mode is just falling back to the previous behaviour.

Works as expected - the table below compares the patchdemo - the issue is fixed there and the current enwiki wmf.7- the issue is present
